J Q Fender wifj and three ittle boys visited Cottagevilie ast week. J L Benton and Jasper Fender attended the Campaign meeting it Bells Saturday last. Sorry to say that Lee Chas- oreau left last Tuesday lor Charleston to have his eyes op- jerated on, hope he will soon ecover and return home. J Q Fender J A, W D Bre- and and J L Benton spent last Aonday in the low country lish- ng they had a fine time. M W Breland has been in bed everal days with his back glad «o say he is improving but rattier >loW. W B Saunders has beeu ou :he sick list but gi«d to say he is ip and able to be about. Miaaea Laura and Nan Bre- and visited their brotner and listers near Tabor last week. Little Miss Urel Yarn is visit* ng at her grandfather^ J »j Griffin. Bill Breland was the l.ouored i fuest of Miss Fearl sterns to have been disappointed, or was scared rway before he could search the body, because a bsg of money was found on her person. This woman bore a good repu tatiou and was a faithful worket <m the farm of G C Parish for the past six years. The occurrence has, natura’ly, worked this community up to a high pitch, and had it not been for the prompt act on of the Magistrate in taking hold of the matter, the sosp?ct would have been vigourously dealth with, and the colored people were die* posed to take the lead. The suspect, Israel Campbell, bears a bad reputation and has been tried and jailed before for a similar murder, but was freed for lack of evidence the evidence now is, of course, circumstantial, but it points strongly,* and the community is determined that theca»e shall be pushed to the full. It it is also reported that this man is wanted for several othet charges, it is hoped that the attorneys will l>e wise and not undertake to release this man on the u«tnl bond.
